In a pressure cooker add the soaked peas with 2 cups of water, salt and haldi powder and pressure cook for 15 mins after the pressure has built up.

Open the lid of the cooker and check the consistency. The peas soak a lot of water. So you might have to add some water to make it a sauce like consistency.

Keep on slow flame and let it cook till it starts boiling.

Add the chopped onions, tomatoes, chilli, coriander, ginger and add the lemon juice to the boiled peas. Let it cook for 2 mins and put off the flame. Add the chaat masala. Your Ragda is ready!
